Yeah, well he did bring in Zare for the finals. There is some debate at present around changing how long a player should be on your team before playing in finals. An argument I'm sure you've heard before Bryce.
I think it's ok as it is, maybe extend it one extra week before the playoffs. It's a high risk strategy that doesn't always work, if you miss can cost a lot of $.
I know you don't broadcast your moves much if ever, mate, but when are you thinking of making a move back to ABBL?
Hopefully within the next three seasons, if not next season, the one after that, and if not that one the one after that!
...having achieved almost everything there is to achieve in Australia, the ABBL-Heaven double must be on the cards at some point? Or even ABBL-Heaven-CUP?
Do you mean winning all four in the one season? Nah, better to have one good team when the other's bad and vice versa.
Yeah, bringing in the big salary players is always a risk; however, this is a game and I like that it's an option if that's how you want to play it. It also means for those of us who don't use that strategy, and who find ourselves at the top at the end of a season, we have to be mindful one of the other teams might make that move. I like this. Builds experience and it's within the game parameters.
Good to hear you are within a few seasons of going back.
Yeah, I guess I meant the four. To be honest, you might not plan to do it, but it's definitely something you may likely do anyway. Your Utopian team looks strong currently and should still be strong when your ABBL team gets back. Who knows. I just thought it interesting to contemplate and wondered whether you had.
If anyone ever does manage to do it, my money it's you.

Anyway, mate...good luck for Season 69.
EDIT: spelling
